The Prohibition Question. Kepler, Nov. 27.--(¥o 'the Editor) : My contributions in favor of the ab- olition of tolls and other letters so- cial and political having always found a place in your paper, 1 encroach still further upon your kindness with a slight review of a lecture on prohibi- tion giver here by Rev. Mr. Craig, of Cataraqui. This lecture contains near- ly all the salient points in favour of prohibition, and 1 must congratulate the reverend gentleman on his excel lent address. 1 am not of opinion with him_that the license system has been fostered and protected" by law. Law has been from the earliest times y restricting a license system, which was at one time practically 'free to all and sundry." It has not only restricted the number of licenses to one in -seven hundred, but has forbidden these to sell except at certain hours and oh certain days. It has further restrict ed 'them regarding those they_.may sell to. We do not call this fostering. Nor has it created a special class any more than a special class is credited by sending members to parliament, or by the ordination of ministers to preach. the gospel. Licenses are grant- ed only for a year at a time, and if a hotel keeper is deemed unfit for his calling by constituted authority he may be excommunicated or suspend- ed. Then petitions. from the people of- ten play a prominent part in the op- ening or closing of hotels. It may be true that the liquor trade receives from thé people eighteen mil- lion dollars per annum, but is it not also true that a great part of that has to be returned to the people ? We hear little or nothing in this country about rum-sellers becoming million- aires, while many of them are known to live frugal lives. They have to pay for that which they receive, and the prime producer is the gainer, while middle men and laborers receive their reward. 1 would not, however, up- hold the liquor trade. I am in favour of prohibition as a theory. Yes, they said Columbus was wrong and that he would never succeed, and he was right. We have a few such examples as Col- umbus and we have thousands of ex- amples of foolhardy undertakings that ended in disaster. We call a man wise if he succeeds and foolhardy if he fails. That's a peculiarity of human nature. You know some men were caricatured thus after the failure of the Scott Act. We can all agree with the quotation from Gladstone, we have used it often but we take objection to figures,which can only be estimates. Has the license law been making for unrighteousness ? Would the reverend gentleman prefer a return to former days ? While it is true that some men of the very worst character have been given licenses is it not alsg true, does history and the news of the day also not teach that some men ofthe very worst character have secured positions in church and state? The method of granting licenses does not justify one in stating that bad men are chosen for hotel-keepers. However, supposing such were the case, would a prohibitory law that could wot be enforced lead to better resaiis ? 'The high li ense system has andoubiediy driven the worst elements ont of the 'business. The reverend gentleman admits that the present law cannot be enforced, vet claims a new law could. Under the present law no one doubts that parties holding 'no licenses throughout the country are selling liquor, yet with all their inspectors and with all the hotel-keepers arrayed against them and the law in their hands it is only occasionally that one of these parties can be convicted. Abolish the licensel hotel and you abolish the most dead- ly enemy of these "dens of iniquity." A few years ago in Western Ontario iquor was being supplied to the bo tels and the government received _ no account of it; the inspectors could pot for some time find the source. Final- ly it was learned that private stills were in operation and one was cap- tured How many are still running no one knows, Now does it not seem folly to think that 'where mild legis- lation cannot be enforced a more stringent and far-reaching law can es pecially when the latter conflicts with what the people or many of them deem to be their personal liberyy ? This is the great point at issue and this is the point prohibitionists for- get to discuss. Mr. Ferguson spoke shrewdly in Kingston when-he said in substance, we had nothing to do with the pust, but were dealing with the present. Yea, verily, let history and expericnce hold peace.

The. following are extracts from a letter dated 26th November, written by that eminent man to Mr. Mudie : "My views on the subject of prohibi- tion remain unchanged. "I trust that 1 am not less sensible than the prohibitionists of the evils of intemperance, but the results of the various experiments in the way of prohibitionist legislation convince me that more harm than good is likely to be done by attempting at once, for- cibly, to extinguish a taste which, when not indulged in to excess, can- not be called criminal and which is al- most coextensive and coeval with hu- manity. "Canada is a temperate and an in- creasingly. temperate country. There seems to me to be no special need here for exceptional and arbitrary leg- islation. 1 have confidence in the self- restraint and moral tendencies of our people." Pittsburg Township Council.
